... STFU!!! Calling for any investigation or further scrutiny makes us look like conspiracy theorists, so just STFU!!!

The only problem is that sometimes there IS election corruption and criminal suppression to be found if you bother to say "Wait a minute here" and LOOK, as there was 20 years ago in Ohio (and elsewhere in 2004).

Just because their claims of "stolen" are groundless does NOT mean that all claims of "something is amiss and we need to take a beat and investigate" are bogus.

I often wonder how things would have unfolded if Congress had fulfilled it's duty and rejected the Florida electors on 1/6/2001, as they should have. As Justice Breyer effectively instructed them to. The ONLY thing Bush v. Gore accomplished was to render the FL election incomplete under FL law and therefore the electors appointed pursuant to it were illegally appointed. Pretty f-ing simple. But not a SINGLE Senator would even join members of the House in an objection.
